Question: Which one of the following complexes is an outer orbital complex? (Atomic nos.: Mn = 25; Fe = 26; Co = 27, Ni = 28)

Options:

A) [Co(NH3)6]3+

B) [Mn(CN)6]4

C) [Fe(CN)6]4

D) [Ni(NH3)6]2+

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Hybridisation [Fe(CN)6]4d2sp3,,[Mn(CN)6]4d2sp3, , [Co(NH)3]3+d2sp3,,[Ni(NH3)6]2+sp3d2, Hence [Ni(NH3)6]2+ is outer orbital complex.
